Lipids of the liver and the other visceral adipose tissue, as well as plasma of hatchery-reared rainbow trout in different states of ovarian development were compared. Total visceral lipid was decreasing in the maturing female, reduction of triglycerides being most prominent. The content of lipid, especially of triglycerides and free fatty acids in the liver and plasma of the maturing female was increasing. It was suggested from these findings that the stored lipid was moved into the liver, extruded into the blood, and then taken up by the growing oocytes.
